My daughter has Down syndrome and I would not want anyone telling her they are in a relationship if they aren't, because she may look at that as "well him being in a relationship is the only reason he turned me down so if he breaks up with his girlfriend them I could date him". Also lying like that puts a huge burden on you to keep up the lie if you want to still be friends. Anyway just say "thanks, but I'm not interested.
Can we just be friends" if you wanna actually be her friend,don't say this if you have no intention of being friends. All I ask is people treat my kids worth honesty and respect. I think you're worried that the people here will feel like your being discriminatory about not dating this girl. You really don't need to worry about that.
Romantic relationship are built on who we are attracted to. It's meant to be an emotional and visceral relationship. Who we are attracted to really has nothing to do with logic or rationality. Not being attracted to someone doesn't mean you are discriminating against them, no matter the reason. There's nothing wrong with turning this girl down. If it helps, you can say you have a girlfriend. Or you can simply say that while you think she's nice and are flattered , you're not interested.
Part of dating is learning how to deal with rejection.
This is true for everyone. My daughter is only 6. I hope one day she'll get to date and have romantic relationships, maybe even get married. But I want her to have those experiences with those who shares her same level of ability and understanding. I want it to be with people who are her peers. Not with people who feel obligated out of guilt, or who can manipulate her.
I would honestly question why someone with a typical ability and intelligence, would want to date someone with an intellectual disability like Down syndrome. Not because the person with DS is a lesser person, but because the relationship could never exist on equal footing. The person with DS doesn't have the same ability to contribute, and requires more than they could give.
Maybe i'm being discriminatory and bigoted. But I would assume someone who is typical, that is pursing someone with an intellectual disability, is doing so for predatory reasons.
Part of the reason I feel that way is because of what happened to a neighbor girl a few years back The girl was 25 at the time and has an intellectual disability that is milder than DS. She could work a part-time retail job and take care of herself for the most part.
But she couldn't drive and still needed to live at home and have someone help her manage her life. She ended up dating and getting engaged to someone who was typical. Her parents were super suspicious, but the guy seemed genuine and they knew his family.
Then his ex girlfriend contacted her and her parents to let them know that he was a predictor, and had groomed her when she was 13 and he was His family and him had kept that he was a registered sex offender from them. He wasn't pursuing the neighbor girl because he saw her as a person he could build a life with. Follow 9 Original post by ANM I saw some pictures some time back which went viral of a guy taking a girl to a high school prom, the guy was good looking and normal, the girl had down syndrome In one of the pictures the guy was in a passionate embrace with the girl.
Follow 10 Original post by Ezme39 Not all people with Down's syndrome have diminished capacity to the extent you are suggesting. Luke Follow 6 followers 20 badges Send a private message to Luke Follow 11 In that regard it depends on the mental state of not just the girl but the guy as well. Is he doing this because he thinks the girl will be easy to manipulate due to lower intelligence, thus an easier lay? If that was the reason I would say yes it is highly immoral. However it appears in the example given that the guy was in love with the girl, and I really don't think that is immoral at all.
I am not attracted to guys but if two guys want to get it on with each other what do I care? In regards to the girls ability to consent in all honesty I am not an expert on down syndrome so it is hard for me to say, if the girl really is unable to understand and consent then that is an issue.

I know they're born with it and all, but the personality issues and the occasional physical oddities make it impossible for me to ever marry a girl.

However we are not the only species that can have consensual sex. As far as I am aware someone with down syndrome still has more intellectual capacity then any none human animal on this planet. Therefore if they both love each other what is the problem? Follow 12 Original post by stirkee why would it be immoral.
Follow 13 She really wanted a bf and hit on quite a few guys but no one would date her. Thinking about it now i feel sorry for her Follow 14 Original post by beth-robinson99 i'm sorry its just my opinion but everyone is equal and deserves the chance to date who they want right? Follow 15 Original post by pairofjeans Well we could use an SJW argument that's relevant for once.
They aren't in the right state of mind to consent to everything. They're mentally handicapped and therefore could be taken advantage of. Follow 16 Follow 17 Original post by stirkee See my post above. The immorality in your example is not inherent in the dating someone with a mental disability, its in the choice of the person without the disability to take advantage of them.
Like I said, dating someone with a mental disability is surely not itself immoral. Follow 18 Original post by pairofjeans But the post isn't about "mental disabilities". We all know how much they can vary depending on type.
